Opinion of the Court
SALCINES, Judge.
Merlán Davis has filed an interlocutory appeal from the trial court’s order holding him in civil contempt. This court has held that prejudgment civil contempt orders are more properly reviewed by certiorari. See Knorr v. Knorr, 751 So. 2d 64 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999). Accordingly, this appeal is treated as a petition for writ of certiorari which is denied.
Petition for writ of certiorari denied.
